Billionaire Twitter owner Elon Musk believes there’s something very off about former President Donald Trump’s classified documents indictment this week.
In a tweet posted on Thursday, the day that news of Trump’s indictment broke, Musk suggested that the former president is being unfairly targeted.
“There does seem to be far higher interest in pursuing Trump compared to other people in politics. Very important that the justice system rebut what appears to be differential enforcement or they will lose public trust,” he wrote.
Look:

Musk appeared to be echoing a point that Trump himself had made in a Truth Social post earlier that morning
“The corrupt Biden Administration has informed my attorneys that I have been Indicted, seemingly over the Boxes Hoax, even though Joe Biden has 1850 Boxes at the University of Delaware, additional Boxes in Chinatown, D.C., with even more Boxes at the University of Pennsylvania, and documents strewn all over his garage floor where he parks his Corvette, and which is ‘secured’ by only a garage door that is paper thin, and open much of the time,” he’d written on Truth Social.
His point was that he wasn’t the only one to have allegedly mishandled classified documents. So did President Joe Biden, yet the president hasn’t been indicted. Neither has former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, whose own classified documents scandal from back in 2016 was, arguably, far worse than Trump’s current scandal.
Her team not only smashed their phones, thus preventing them from being searched by federal authorities, but they also deleted subpoenaed emails and, worse, ran classified emails through an unsecured server stored in a bathroom.
Despite all this, Clinton was let off the hook in 2016 by then-FBI Director James Comey. And now that her political opponent, Trump, has been indicted, she’s taken to essentially celebrating and gloating over her own lack of an indictment.
Look:
Bringing this back in light of recent news:

The gloating tweet prompted a torrent of backlash from others like Musk and Trump who see the unfairness of what’s happening clear as day.
Observe:
You smashed phones to prevent oversight, deleted subpoenaed emails, ran classified info through an unsecured server in your bathroom. You’re a menace.

Funny.. not funny… I would advice on not gloating right now. You do realize this set a precedent of law that will not necessarily be a positive outcome for you Mam.

Bragging about the fact that you have managed to escape criminal prosecution because of a weaponized justice system isn’t a good look.
No wonder Bill cheated on you so many times, you insufferable pig.

Aren’t you proud of yourself Hillary? You manage to manipulate the entire government to go after your enemies. And you slither around without any comeuppance. Yet.

You sold the State Dept for 4 years, which is why you hid all your State emails on your illegal secret server. So now you’re going to brag that you got away with your treason? What’s next, a hat that says, “My husband went to Epstein’s island, and all I got was this stupid hat”?

Weren’t secret and top secret documents found on your private email server? Yet the DOJ looked the other way and gave you a free pass. We know that Democrats are given special treatment when it comes to following the law. Then again, we’ve all heard about the Clinton body count.

Note what one critic wrote: “I would advice (sic) on not gloating right now. You do realize this set a precedent of law that will not necessarily be a positive outcome for you Mam.”
Bingo. Because of the precedent now set by the Biden administration, some suspect that the next Republican administration will be quick to indict Clinton, Biden, and anyone else who’s committed the same crimes as Trump allegedly has.
The question now is how the left, including the media, will react when fair play is finally achieved and Biden and Clinton are forced to answer for their crimes just like Trump. Will they admit that fair is fair, or will they cry foul?
You don’t have to like Trump. You can even agree with the standard that no one is above the law. He’s not the test here. That standard will be tested when the next Republican president indicts Joe and Hunter Biden under the same statute, and probably Hillary Clinton.
